Hi Norman,
On a lark I Googled and found:
http://www.igcar.ernet.in/igc2004/balbio.htm
"His specializations include materials characterization, testing and
evaluation using nondestructive evaluation methodologies, materials
development and performance assessment and technology management. He has
steered and participated in many national programmes of great significance
namely DST project on Intelligent Processing of Materials, Characterization
of Cultural Heritage, IAF programmes of ageing management, Dept. of Space
and Dept. of Defence programmes. He has 33 years of experience, which has
led to many first of its kind observations and discoveries in the field of
materials characterization and applications. He is known for his
contributions to KAMINI Reactor, hot cell facilities for examination and
reprocessing of fuels and reactor technology particularly in the area of
materials and manufacturing technologies. "
Charlatan, maybe...
